Submit answers using remote control web service  
Written by splram the 10 Oct 11 at 12:07. Global category: Question types. New
Since we already have sGetFieldmap service method to retrieve list of survey questions, I feel we should also have some web service way to submit answers.

Typically this will be used when another application tries to integrate with lime survey. e.g. mobile survey application using native libraries - The application will retrieve questions using sGetFieldmap web service method, and after user answers the questions there is no way of submitting answer to lime survey using web service call

Solution #1: Provide a remote service method to submit answers
Written by splram the 10 Oct 11 at 12:07.
Similar to other web service methods there should be a web service method that will allow answer submission based on survey, group and question id.

The time for a rating scale question cannot be limited  
Written by kuehnik the 6 Dec 11 at 15:00. Global category: Question types. New
Sometimes it makes sense to limit the time to answer a rating question. In LS, though, it is not possible to limit the time of an array or radiobutton question, among other question types.

sort answer options  
Written by pmonstad the 14 Feb 12 at 21:19. Global category: Question types. New
It\\\'s possible to move around answers when editing answer options. There is no way to sort ascending/descending (only set this as an option when showing answer options when the survey is run). Having the possibility top sort the answer options when editing large lists of options are most wanted.

"Others" Answer Options in Arrays...  
Written by lucafri the 11 May 10 at 15:01. Related project: 1.x all. New
In an Array, like in the multiple choice question, is of vital interest to have the possibility of others answer options further the fixed answer options...
So can the person that give the answer:
1) insert free text in the option "other"
2) give an evaluation based on the defined label set

Display incomplete surveys  
Written by tringate the 21 May 10 at 01:23. Related project: 1.x all. New
Surveys can be incomplete for basically two reasons.
- The responder saved the survey for later completion
- The responder simply left the survey without finishing it.

The first can be displayed from the primary survey tool bar, the second can only be found by looking through all the surveys for those not yet completed but this also shows those saved for later completion.

Solution #1: Add a non completed survey display button

To be able to identify these incomplete surveys and delete them easily, add a button to the survey tool bar to display incomplete but not saved surveys.

Totals fields for Array (Multi Flexi) (Text) (numbers only)  
Written by evan the 25 Feb 10 at 01:42. Related project: 1.x all. New
We have a survey that requires participants to fill in a time sheet. We would like to show them the total hours for each task. We also need to record these totals in the survey results.

Solution #1: Add three additional attributes for Array (Multi Flexi) (Text) (numbers only)
Written by evan the 25 Feb 10 at 01:42.
1 it might be worth making the question Array (Multi Flexi) (Text) (attribute: numbers only) into it's own question type

2 add the following attributes:
Show totals
* row = total for each row (an additional column)
* col = total for each column (an additional row)
* both = totals for both columns and rows (an additional row and column)

store totals in results
* 1 = store column/row totals in results

Grand total
* 1 = show grand total only
* 2 = store grand total in results (do not display)
* 3 = show grand total and store in results

Java script would calculate totals for columns/rows and would be able to hand negative numbers and floating point numbers.

for visual example see
http://apps.acu.edu.au/~evanw/LimeSurvey_custom-q-type_array-mulit-flexi-text-n umbers-only.html

Please ignore styling as this should be done with CSS.

I can help with the HTML side but can't help with JS, DB LS admin stuff.

Add global update button to Label Set screen  
Written by tringate the 21 May 10 at 01:03. Related project: 1.x all. New
With label sets now being basically a template, it is necessary to "replace" that label set in all questions it is used in one at a time.

In addition to No Answer, there should be a Bullshit! option  
Written by eckes the 16 Nov 09 at 08:53. Global category: Question types. New
We have the policy for important surveys, that you can skip each question with an Bullshit! option, meaning the question is manipulative or the answer possibilities to not allow to express a neutral oppinion. It is like the "No Answer" option.

The problem is, I can use the Bullshit options in some answer types with no problems as an additional option (lists), but in some Answer types it is really hard to do (think Ranking or Numeric Input).

Since the statistics are also affected, and it would be good to set a condition on this (show reason input textfield if any question was answered with Bullshit) and since I like to display a "use with caution" reminder it is good to have this as an globbal extra attribute to each answer type.

Solution #1: Implement an question attribute "bullshit_enabled"
Written by eckes the 16 Nov 09 at 08:53.
Implement an question attribute which will render an additional Button or other Gui control to mark a question as missleading.

Question Type: Array with text box behind each labels table  
Written by LuK123 the 14 Jul 10 at 16:36. Global category: Question types. New
Hello,

we use your program in our company. We are working on a project and need some assistance with a specific question type.

We use an array(Yes/No). But we need behind of each column (labels table) a text box, in order to make some notes, or to justify each answer wether "yes" or "no".

Is it possible that you create such a question type for us?

Cheers
